Vatn

Vatn was the god of the people of Førstejord. He was worshiped for many years before Suni's arrival. He was known as the first god, the Father of Humanity.

Legend

It is said that Vatn was once a demon that lived at the bottom of the great sea. He fought his way to the surface. As he reached the surface massive waves broke from beneath him. These waves broke the Lands of Heronia. The mountains of Førstejord were created by his merger to the realm.

History

After the arrival of the goddess Suni the worship of Vatn fell. The enlightenment that humanity developed engrossed the cultures. However, the last culture to follow Vatn was rooted in the kingdom of Førstejord. The worship of this old demon god caused many conflicts between the people of Førstejord and the capital of Heronia, Highholde. A war broke out in the year 56HE.

The Following

The people of Forstejord followed a strong guidance from their sea god, Vatn. It was said that he would send great challenges, known as the Askorun, that would cause the person a large amount of misery. It was thought that the Askorun was a sort of trial. Vatn would send his children to effect the lives of the humans. Stories of sailors would make their way to shore about large beasts from the water snapping boats in half. It was even said that dragons from the ocean would ruin vilages. It was thought that if the Askorun came into a person's life, it would be up to them to resolve it. If the Askorun was not defeated the person would not be allowed in the Stóra Eyja.
